:eek: Jeezus, man....that might make you Sith Lord! Right up there with Jeff! :D

In the last few days, I've made a hammock, a set of slapstraps, 95% of a cat tarp, and about a half a pack....and I thought I was doing well!

Color me impressed!

Can I be your sewing machine salesman.:D I can't wait till I get my sewing machine. I will most likely have it worn out in a year.

Yep - I use the one my wife's grandmother bought for my wife when she was younger. Been with my wife since high school and the only time I ever saw it was during military moves. Then I found the Hennessy, which led me to the yahoo group, and the rest is history.

Most of my projects are on the website. Lost count of the hammocks I've made. A few stuffsacks and such didn't make it onto the site. Lots of half-designed projects on random papers around the house...

I'm a bad DIY addict. My other passion is music and stereo equipment, including headphones and cables. Here's some of my DIY stuff from that arena:

That stuff just scratches the surface. I now have an ever growing list of hiking and camping related DIY stuff that seems to grow daily. You should see all the stove around my house.

I am sooooo addicted.

OOh electronics don't get me started. I have made so many electronic gadgets in my past that I have LEDs for eyes. I have 3 PCs that I have built from scratch heck I own 10 complete PCs. But I am now gonna start making my own outdoor gear. Can't wait till I get my hands on a new sewing Machine. Which one I haven't decided yet but I have been looking at a bunch of them.

Why don't you DIY a sewing machine? With LEDs.

Thrift stores and Salvation Army stores sometimes have good deals on decent machines, I've heard.
